Morris Oxfords Series II, III and IV

BMC designed the replacement Morris Oxford (Series II) for 1954, giving it the new B-series engine and a monocoque body. Although Issigonis had moved to Alvis, it is likely the Oxford body was his work. In 1956 the Series was launched with a revised body sprouting wings and a new bonnet, and several changes to specification. Six cylinder variants of these Oxfords were produced as Morris Isis Series I and II. In 1957 the timber-framed Traveller estate car was replaced by a steel-bodied estate called the Oxford Series IV.

Morris Oxford Series II. Although Alec Issigonis had moved to Alvis when the Oxford Series II was launched, it is thought that the design was his.

Morris Oxford Series III received a more powerful (55bhp) 1489cc B-series engine which helped to improve performance, and a freshened-up version of the Series II bodywork - now with 2tone paint and "wings".
